The house was in a beautiful location with water views on both sides and a short walk tothe beach. We were pleasantly surprised by the nice beach chairs, boogie board and wagon available for our use. The host communicated well and responded promptly to any questions. We really enjoyed our time at this house.

Short trip, fished most of the time, house was good

Fun times. House was nice and perfect for our boat. Owner was very responsive.

Location of the house is great with both and back having waterfront views. House in general is very clean. However, the dock at the back of the house has one floatation device broken, sinking one corner of the dock, making it unlevel and somewhat unsafe. We brought our boat and crab trap with us. However, we lost our crab trap because someone cut the rope of the trap and threw the floater on the nearby shoreline. This is the second time in Holden Beach that our crab trap was messed with by someone. It should be noted that we were careful in not placing our trap anywhere near the commercial crab traps.Last but not least, we were charged a very large amount of security deposit at the time of booking the trip, an amount that is equivalent to the total cost of rental for the stay. It took VRBO 14 days after we checked out before we got refunded. The owner told us VRBO was notified that there was no reported damage about 2 days after our checkout. We think not only was the amount of security deposit unnecessarily high, but to hold up customer 's deposit for 2 weeks after checkout was unacceptable. This alone is enough to make it uncomfortable for us to book with VRBO again.
